Here's some highlights of the wild willy race my bro caught on film

-
I'd be there if it was yearly too, I had a great time


-
Haven't had time to sort out the pictures yet, so have dumped the lot on photo bucket for now, I will post some to TC once on a device that has flash, for now though here's a link to the album

Cheers mikeekim, Was it you who I tried to rob the blitzer front and back from?, I say rob I meant purchase for a incredibly low price. lol
I got home, took the blitzer out and snapped an axle, so if you still have the rest of the rear end?, I may be wanting to purchase it?.
Yeah it's me mate, is it just the rear axle (SA5?) if it is just PM your address and I'll drop one in the post for you


I should have some video to put up soon of the lunchbox and wild willy race
:) -
Some great videos wolfdog

Just wanted to say thanks for today, it was great to meet some like minded folk and some of the vehicles on display were awesome.
I look forward to seeing all the photos

-
Just fixed my MB and sorted some stuff out to sell, I don't plan on bringing any of this home, there are already 5 cars in my car too


-
Took my monster beetle out for a test run today prior to its race on Saturday
and it's good job I did as after only 5 mins I broke three parts and discovered my bodge job rear body posts are a bit rubbish
all will be sorted tomorrow evening though, might need to borrow body posts of my shelfer. 
This weekends gonna be great

-
Got my Monster beetle ready, just need to take it for a test run tomorrow after work and charge some batterys
really looking forward to Saturday, got plenty of things to off load too currently sitting at about ten cars and a box or two of spares, cars include a traxxas bandit, tamiya mx5, ansmann macnum, hpi e10 drift car, tamiya star card Porsche, Kyosho monster truck thing, Kyosho buggy, Schumacher wild cat touring, Schumacher xtr chassis, a couple of Amax models and I'm sure I'll find more when I go up the loft

A while back when things were expensive I decided that the way to do things economically was to do them in bulk, then get rid of the bits I didn't use. My WW is a classic case of that I bought just about WW I saw going for a while took them all apart and put the bits in boxes, then did nothing with them. So I've just got boxes of all the bits to build about half a dozen all in boxes, parts ranging from new to 'more glue than plastic' I'll chuck them all in the car and bring them along.
Thank you, I look forward to having a look

-
Is anyone after 'old' stuff any more? I've just found another box with about 5 x Wild Willy 1 ranging from very nice to not so nice. Is it worth bringing this sort of stuff? Same with SRB's I've got a heap of partial chassiss and parts.I've also got mountains of clod stuff, 3 pairs of nice gear boxes and loads of hop up bits. Plus a box which contains just about every spring tamiya ever madeReason there is so much stuff is that, although I always bought loads to trade to events, I always kept lots of stuff back planning and hoarding for 'rainy day' projects. Figured there is no chance thats going to happen, so it time to pass the stuff on
What's the worst wild willy you have as I have one I plan on restoring to runner condition and a donor car would be useful

-
Tomorrows challenge.
Who can be the first to publish a pic of their tickets to their showroom (or here if you don't have one)
Chris
Got my tickets, awesome


-
Two more cars I plan on running on Saturday



-
Just booked into a couple of races, just need to do a quick resto rebuild to get the monster beetle ready
I got it in a trade last week with Kendal Boatsman 



My wife laughed when I said I was entering it into a race lol
-
I've had a couple of these mate and they are great bashers. I like the paint job too

-
Here's my blitzer basher, not lots of mods but a lot of fun, I ended up running a trinity monster motor in this and it went really well and jumped good too


It's still up the loft somewhere

If you decide to get another truck too the Traxxas Monster Jam trucks/Stampedes are good fun for the money and have fairly good clearance too however my emaxx is my basher of choice at the moment

-
I will be there for sure, not sure which day yet though, possibly both? should be bringing my brother too

Started getting cars ready last week, both to sell and to use looking forward to putting my lunchbox in a race

-
Hi, I've been sorting cars out ready for the TC meet next month, and this is one I have had for ages and doesn't really suit my collection so it will be going to see if it can find a new home, if no one wants it here.
This is in great shape, have a look here http://photobucket.com/albums/hh623/MadMikeWorthington/schumacher%20touring
The slash and land cruiser are there for size comparison




Also a video of it here
I'm usually good with the value of cars but this one I haven't got a clue? So make me an offer.
I'm in the midlands in the UK I will post most places at cost

Cheers
Mike

It looks sweet whatever it is mate
I can ask my brother in law, he used to work at Schumacher he might be able to help? -
Just out of interest what are the front tyres on the truck? also what electrics does it have?
Looks like a sweet truck though.
-
What sort of thing are you after in a trade mate?
-
One of the lunch boxes I bought a while back had the front steering set up in the same way.
I ran it to see if it improved the steering and from memory it was just fine with no real improvement, it just looked weird.
When I'm up the loft next ill see if I have the part you require.
-
I really want one of these trucks, I think they look like a laugh 😜
